I am aware that the Gladiator Rubicon Diesels (and some others) come factory with steel steering knuckles. I have a 2022 JT Rubicon with the aluminum knuckles.

Does anyone know if the knuckles would be a direct swap? I tend to believe they would, but I am not sure if the cost would be worth it over buying Reid knuckles.

Haven't seen any mention of this potential swap so wanted to spark the conversation.

Do they seem strong enough to NOT need to upgrade to aftermarket knuckles?
I'm never gonna. I've jumped my truck multiple times, as well as some other stupid shit. They are still attached.
